Jack fired Billy, who took time away from drinking and gambling to blackmail Kevin into letting him in on Kevin's new Web-based project. Victoria admitted to Chelsea that she couldn't be the one to save Billy again. Billy got drunk at the Underground's Christmas party, dissed Victoria, and took a swing at Stitch, who took the drunkard home. Stitch admitted to Abby that he'd declared his love to her mom during the fire. Ashley insisted the incident had only been because they'd believed they would die. Abby agreed to move forward with plans for the New Year's Eve wedding. Ashley collapsed in the park, conversed with her dead dad, and stepped down as Jabot's CEO. Victor tried to push Luca's family out of Newman Enterprises. Luca refused. Noah met with an FBI agent, but didn't tell him anything about Luca. The agent revealed they had been investigating the Santori family for years. Adam convinced Noah to serve as a liaison between the Santori and Newman families to learn something the Newmans could use to push out the Santoris. Neil refused to fund Dr. Neville's research, so Neville got Hilary to approach Devon. To prevent Neville from revealing that Neil was responsible for Hilary's abduction, Devon agreed to fund the company.

Hilary tried to give Devon back her eternity ring, but he refused to accept it. Jack objected to Ashley working with Dr. Neville. Ashley hid her headaches from her loved ones. Nikki hosted a family Christmas Eve party, but she and Victor argued about him working instead of celebrating the holiday. Faith convinced Victor to attend the party.
